Unfair Jelly Babies

Today I opened a packet of Jelly babies and there was one lime and one purple jelly baby - the rest were orange lemon and raspberry. I feel cheated!

The same with Skittles - I want more purple ones not all the lemon and oranges.

Why do companies do this or an I just bloody unlucky!

Orange, lemon and raspberry are the worst. Thoughts with you during this difficult time, OP. Let me know if want to have a seances or similar to get the jelly baby spirits aligned.

The red and purple ones are the worst. The citrus ones are much nicer, especially the green and yellow. I firmly believe in a blind taste test people would choose green and yellow every time, I think it's just the colour that makes people think they don't like green ones.

We should share sweets.

Mmmm and Quality Street that only have four green triangles in an entire tin and masses of toffee pennies. Gits.

And Revels full of toffee and no maltesers or orange and coffee cream ones. Don’t buy these any more anyway because they’ve shrunk from 130g to about 89g. Gits.

I love the toffee pennies, lol I also have the toffee eclairs from the Hero’s, Well I used to before finding out I’m dairy and wheat intolerant 😢😢😢
